At least one '''refinery ship''' (of [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Tauron|Tauranian]] registry) escaped the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]] with [[the Fleet]]. Refinery ships process raw minerals and metals gathered by a [[Mining Ship]]. Unlike a Mining Ship, a Refinery Ship has large processing and storage facilities, and presumably can serve as a fueling vessel.

The Tauranian Refinery Ship refused to continue refining tylium in protest of President [[Laura Roslin]]'s imprisonment and Col. Tigh's subsequent declaration of martial law ("[[Resistance]]").
Over forty years later the class is used for civilian purposes.

==Notes==


Lt. [[Felix Gaeta]]'s wording when he reports on the defection of the "Tauranian refining vessel" would seem to indicate that the fleet has at least one additional refinery ship, of non-Tauranian registry ([[Resistance]]).

Additional Information


Refinery ships are vessels used for refining tylium that have been used in the colonies since at least as far back as the First Cylon War. During the war, they presumably had the role of replenishing the fuel reserves of Colonial Fleet ships (TRS: "Blood and Chrome").

Over forty years later the class is used for civilian purposes. At least two of these ships, Daru Mozu and Hitei Kan, are able to escape with Galactica following the Fall of the Twelve Colonies (TRS: "Miniseries"). During the refugee fleet's ongoing escape from Cylon forces, these ships refine tylium mined by the vessels Monarch and Majahual.
